Thanks to everyone who has reviewed I really appreciate it!
Love Amongst the ChaosChapter 2 "She's alive."
"Angie? Are you okay?" Carlos called quietly through the door.
The door flew open and Carlos shook the surprise as he gazed at the little girl who was standing in front of the door shaking with unshed tears flooding her eyes.
"Hey Ang, what's wrong?" he practically purred trying to ease the girl's distress but already knowing it would prove to be a useless attempt.
"Carlos…she's alive." Angie whispered looking up into the eyes of the tall dark man in front of her.
Carlos's heart tightened, it had been almost three weeks since he had left Alice behind him. He still woke with cold sweats imagining her begging him to save her from a death she had already endured. He had eventually just stopped trying to sleep and just stayed a wake until he passed out.
"Angie it was just a dream." He whispered soothingly.
"No it wasn't. She's alive." Angie said firmly.
Carlos struggled not to yell at the girl, it wasn't her fault he had trouble coming to terms with how Alice's death had affected him.
"Angie we were there. We saw her die." he said chokingly.
"No they brought her back. She's alive. I'm telling the truth!" Angie stated becoming agitated with Carlos for not believing her.
Carlos finally gave up and just walked away, he stepped out onto the porch and almost crashed into Jill who was just on her way in.
"Hey Jill." Carlos muttered as he moved towards the large metal bar that stretched across the wooden porch.
Jill nodded in his direction but didn't reply. She hadn't spoken much to anyone but Angie since they had escaped Raccoon City. Carlos jumped up and grabbed the metal bar and began doing one-armed pull-ups.
Exercising help him relax, he spent his time being too tired to remember Alice's face as the metal entered her flesh. Half an hour later he entered the small cabin they were hiding in to find Jill on the small computer they had managed to acquire.
"What's up Jill?" he asked walking to stand over her shoulder.
As he stood over her Jill hacked into the video files of the Umbrella corporations. It showed a helicopter landing next to the wreck and a bunch of men jumping out and moving around the area. Seconds later a tall man climbed out and made his way over to Alice's body.
He knelt beside her and pulled the white sheet to reveal Alice's burned face and her blank staring eyes, he ran his hand through her hair and Carlos could feel the rage whelming up in his body, but it all disappeared as they stuck a needle in her neck and placed her into the helicopter.
"She really is alive." He whispered faintly.
"Yeah and those Umbrella bastards have her. God knows what they're doing to her now." Jill said sadly as she watched the screen.
"We're getting her out of there." Angie said from behind them.
Carlos turned and watched the little girl for a moment and finally nodded. "Let's do it."
Jill grinned for the first time since they lost Alice and she jumped up and began strapping on her many guns and whistling to herself.
"Angie, I'm sorry for not listening to you." Carlos said.
He opened his mouth to continue but Angie shook her head, "Don't be, I understand why it was harder for you to believe."
Carlos nodded but then what she had just said hit him and he turned to question her about it but she was gone and he just shook the thought away.
